Appendix 1: Transcription of gaze, gesture and prosody

Gaze and gesture adapted from a system used by Oelschlaeger & Damico (2000),
originally devised by Goodwin & Goodwin (1986). Marking of pitch height follows
the conventions used by Corrin, Tarplee & Wells (2001).

1. Gaze of the speaker is marked above or below the turn at talk. A line without
orthographic description (----) indicates that the speaker is gazing towards the

listener.

2. x marks the beginning and end of the direction of gaze.

3. >>> indicates a shift of gaze from one direction to another.

4. Specific gaze direction is described orthographically through indication of the
person or place or the direction of the gaze (e.g. initial of person, or book).
Continuous gaze at an object is indicated with a broken line: x---book---x.

5. Gesture is described orthographically in italics e.g. ((points)); where there is
simultaneous talk, it is placed below the spoken words. Continuous gesture is
indicated with a line
((book__________)).

6. Pitch height is shown orthographically above the turn at talk, between two
straight lines that indicate the speaker’s typical range.
